Incredibly murky, completely opaque beautiful pink and orange coloured body that looks exactly like guava nectar, all with a fairly thick, three centimetre tall creamy orange-tinted head that stays afloat and has pink specs in it - very crazy coloured! Aroma of papaya, melons, mangoes, full tangerines, a kick of hibiscus and slightly tart tropical fruits with a bunch of rich malts here, especially oats and wheat, but the vanilla and especially lactose are pungent in the nose. Medium to Full-bodied; Incredibly rich fruits dominate and bring out a lot of mangoes and papaya especially, but guava and lactose are very strong here as well, with a good malt backbone - but what isn't here at all is, HOPS! Aftertaste is fruity, super rich, pretty sweet and a little soured, but balanced nicely with the rich malts and while this shows a touch of alcohol, there is absolutely no hops. Overall, a nice beer for sure, but let's be honest - this has NOTHING to do with an IPA, at all! It's a fruited sour, plain and simple. So, call it what it is and leave off 'IPA' it may cost you a few sales, but just be honest. It's very nice, super tropical and packed with fruits, flavour and complexity, I'm happy to try it from Connecticut and Fresh, but it makes me frustrated! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Glen Ro Spirit Shoppe in Monroe, Connecticut on 05-September-2022, with the tagline 'Never Stop Looking Up' on the bottom, canned on 26-May-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 10-September-2022.
